Kanye West Renounces Trump, Slams Biden; Claims He Had Covid-19 in Long Interview
Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorKanye West backed off of his support for President Trump, claimed he had a bout with Covid-19 in February, talked at length — if vaguely — about his own presidential campaign, slammed presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and plenty more in a sprawling four-hour interview with Forbes that published early Wednesday. He also shared his views on race, abortion and Covid-19 in comments frequently sprinkled with religious references, and said he has never voted.The interview was West’s first since he announced late on July 4 that he is running for president, although he has apparently taken no official steps to confirm his candidacy at this point and has already missed deadlines for several states.
